Subaru is the Japanese name of Pleiades. I am now writing a series of 'Pleiades Dances' for piano, and Op. 78 is a companion piece of that composition and is newly written for piano. It is composed of seven short character pieces based on the theme of seven tones. 1. Moon: prelude with a seven-note theme. 2. Fire: allegro with overtones of pathos. 3, Water: moderato like waving water 4. Wood: scherzo associated with dried wood 5. Metal: barely glittering adagio 6. Earth: allegro looking back hitherto 7. The Sun: a presentation of the theme and a return to the beginning. Written from spring through summer in 1999, this work, Op.78, serves as the last of the trilogy, including "Moyura" and "Nabari" | ||
